Human Excreta for Plant Production

"In many cases, human urine and composted human faeces could be fortified with wood ash and kitchen and garden waste to meet the potassium and phosphorus needs of plants and to improve soil structure. Avoiding health risks and dosage requirements are also discussed. The ideas presented here can be used even with the cheap pit latrines that are common in the rural and peri-urban areas of developing countries. They do not require electricity and/or tap water."
